jonp Posted March 7 Posted March 7 New blog post up today providing a status update on HexOS! https://hexos.com/blog/hexos-q1-status-update 21 11
Sonic Posted March 7 Posted March 7 Thank you for the update. Really appreciated! The next step in the HexOs journey 2
nugglet Posted March 7 Posted March 7 Awesome, thank you for the thorough update and continued efforts towards a better experience! 2
PsychoWards Posted March 7 Posted March 7 That's awesome I cannot wait what the reinforced team is going to cook up in the future. Q2 seems to address most of the current problems which people are facing, exciting to see those things coming soon. Are there more details about the Manual Pool Configuration, will it still be limited to Mirrored and RaidZ1 pools? Also what about striped pools breaking Hexos, will this be addressed with this as well, Hexos is very angry at me for having an external drive in a single drive pool which is used as the destination for a zfs replication of the other pools. Good call on pushing the VMs back.
TwoStroke Posted March 7 Posted March 7 No mention of local dashboard, so I guess that's a Q4 / 1.0 task right before launch? 1

Good call on pushing the VMs back. It looks like it should support all drive configurations support in Scale, from what their wording says? Saying that this is required to adopt existing Scale installs into HexOS makes me think all Scale drive types will be supported, except maybe not cache drives or meta data drives yet because they're kind of off to the side of storage? 1
jonp Posted March 7 Author Posted March 7 We do not intend on making everything that you can configure via TrueNAS directly configurable using our UI, but we do want users to be able to use the TN UI to create a custom storage pool that we then adopt for management.
Terrence Posted March 7 Posted March 7 Love the updates! Love the transparency about needing to take a minute! I don't disagree with the priorities! 😄
Kurma Posted March 8 Posted March 8 I have a question how does the app template differentiate itself from unraids system? I like the idea of community apps, but I was really looking forward to optimal one click setup apps that have support by people who are not doing it as a hobby.

A lot of the apps are started by Devs doing it as a hobby in there freetime, so I wouldn't necessarily see a community created template as something bad or suboptimal.
Sonic Posted March 8 Posted March 8 @PsychoWards, I agree with that. I know a lot of docker app projects, served by an individual or a small group of people. E.g. I am using Dockge and Uptime Kuma for a few months now. Great apps developed by an individual.
LarsJ Posted March 8 Posted March 8 So glad to see this roadmap published for the next few quarters! cant wait to see what the next major update has in store for us on Q1! Thanks again and congrats on the major expansion!

My concern is mostly with breaking changes and quick response time. I do not expect a free time template maker to commit a new update as soon as problems arise. In contrast I expect that hexos will keep up to date with e.g. immich once it leaves beta.

The idea with the template system is that it will allow apps to be set up for 1 click install by anyone, not just the HexOS dev team. The result for the average end user will be the same, this just makes the curation process easier and more open. 2

Good call on pushing the VMs back. Yea having the same issue here. Since adding a new pool with a single ssd on it (For vm's) a bunch of stuff on the dashboard break such as loading times, creating folders...

It’s coming! 4

Szym2c2 Posted March 11 Posted March 11 (edited) From the time of hexos realese to know, i've managed to learn truenas - like it, then get quite frustrated at it, and now can't wait for hexos, to a more "plug'n'play" style Edited March 11 by Szym2c2 1
